Setting up for Success
Nicole and I worked really hard to establish a positive classroom environment for all our wonderful students. It is so important in those first few weeks to establish a strong positive classroom tone so that students are happy and so that we are able to forge strong relationships. We learnt about each other and also worked to develop their relationships with each other. Our classroom looks warm and inviting now and Andrew remarked in our observation about how well the class was doing and that we had such calm and positive natures that really and how happy the students are. This was great to hear about how well we have worked to create such a positive environment. Below are some of Andrew’s comments which show our strong relationships with our students.
Setting High Expectations
We always ensure we have individualised high expectations for all the students. So that they are being pushed to keep making progress but that this progress is based upon themselves and not any expected standard as all students are different. This term we have also begun writing goals for the students to focus on next term. You can see our display below.
